How is the weather in Peru?

The climate in Peru is extremely varied depending on the region you visit!

Peru has a variety of climates due to its proximity to the equator and tropical influence, along with the high altitudes of the Andes and the strong currents of the Pacific Ocean. The country is generally divided into three main geographical regions:

Coast – The main feature of the coast is dryness – it is mostly desert, but a desert with mild temperatures, and high humidity. Light rain falls a few months of the year, but usually, the coast is covered by heavy fog from the sea, which brings a lot of fog over the land and often a feeling of cold. During the summer months (December-April), fog disappears and temperatures can exceed 30ºC, especially in the north.

Mountains – The Andes have two well-marked seasons – the dry season with its sunny days from April to October and the rainy season between November and March. Daytime temperatures do not fluctuate much throughout the year, but dry season night temperatures often cause severe cold due to frequent frosts above 3,500 mts (11,500 ft). Most tourists choose to visit during the dry months. The climate varies greatly depending on the altitude. The mountain climate is wild and unpredictable at any time of year!

Amazon – A tropical climate with two seasons – dry and hot between April – October and a hot season between November and March. High humidity is present throughout the year.
